Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 13

Ingredients

12 ounces to 1 pound of salad shrimp, cooked and peeled (i buy it frozen from walmart), set aside 2 tbsp. of the shrimp
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
2 Tbsp sour cream
2 tsp worcestershire sauce
1 tsp lemon juice (real lemon juice brand or squeezed from a fresh lemon)
1/2 tsp ground cayenne pepper
1 tsp minced garlic or 2 fresh minced garlic cloves
1 (12 oz) bottle shrimp cocktail sauce
1/2 c green onions, chopped
1/2 c green bell pepper, diced
2 cups finely shredded mozzarella cheese
optional half jar of pimentos for added color and appeal
optional 1/2 cup of sliced ripe olives

Steps:

1. In a medium mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, sour cream, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, cayenne pepper and garlic. Mix with an electric mixer until all is thoroughly blended together.
2. Spread the mixture on bottom of a glass 8X8X2 (or slightly larger) serving dish.
3. Pour and spread bottle of Shrimp Cocktail Sauce atop the cheese and spice, herb mix. Next, drain any excess water from your clean, cooked, thawed shrimp and place on top of the cocktail sauce.
4. Now add all fresh vegetables atop your shrimp and top off with the finely shredded mozzarella cheese mixed with pimento and sliced ripe olives. (I do not usually use the pimento and ripe olives unless it for a fancy party.) GARNISH with the reserved shrimp sprinkled atop the Mozzarella dish. (Please do not forget this step because some people are allergic to shellfish.) Chill and serve with Ritz Crackers or crackers of your choice.
5. *OPTIONAL* If you do not have Shrimp Cocktail Sauce, but you have chili sauce, substitute it and serve with tortilla chips, corn chips etc...
